Warm finish and classic profile
The fully finished surfaces let you use it as a freestanding piece in a bedroom or behind a sofa without exposing raw wood. The traditional design and solid wood materials bring a cozy, familiar look to a room.

The Ray Console in Pale brings handcrafted warmth to your entry or hallway with its clean lines and natural solid wood construction. This console table -- a slim, horizontal surface piece designed to stand against a wall in foyers, hallways, or behind sofas -- features a pale finish that highlights the organic grain and artisan character of every board. Available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping, the Ray Console by Noir measures 42" wide and stands just over 30" tall, making it an ideal anchor for tight spaces where you need surface area without bulk.
Because the Ray Console offers a finished back, you can float it in the middle of a room or tuck it behind a sofa without sacrificing appearance -- every angle looks complete. Pair it with our consoles and side tables for a cohesive entryway statement, or flank it with seating from our bar height tables collection for a casual eat-in nook. At 15 inches deep, the Ray Console slips into narrow hallways and apartment entries where traditional buffets would overwhelm the space, yet still provides enough surface for keys, mail, lamps, and decorative trays.
Use the Ray Console as a drop zone in your foyer -- mount a mirror above, add a catchall dish, and store shoes or baskets below the open base. In a living room, position it behind your sectional to hold table lamps and books, turning dead space into a functional display ledge. The pale finish pairs beautifully with cream walls and natural textiles, and the rectangular top offers plenty of room for framed photos, plants, or a rotating seasonal vignette. Browse our coffee tables and dining table sets to tie the look together across adjoining rooms.

Useful in a home office Ray Wood Dark Brown Console Table 2
The finished back panel means you can place it away from the wall and use both sides for storage or display. Solid wood construction gives it stability for holding books or a small printer.
Handy in a hallway or living space
Traditional lines and solid wood construction make it feel like a proper piece rather than a flimsy table. It would fit nicely in a hallway to hold keys and a bowl for mail.
Sturdy traditional entry table
Solid wood construction gives it a hefty, long-lasting feel and the finished back panel means it can sit out in the middle of an entryway without showing raw edges. The traditional style will pair with classic decor and should hold a lamp and mail easily.
Solid wood but a bit heavy to move
Solid wood means it's sturdy, but that heft makes it awkward to reposition by yourself. The finished back panel is great for placing it away from a wall, though you might want a helper when moving it into place.
